ECR spent 150 miles (and 5 full charge cycles) aboard the Land Moto District. The Land Moto District is an electric motorcycle designed and built right here in the USA. It has 17kW of peak power and a nominal power of 11.5kW. This eMoto has a variety of 72 volt batteries to choose from, being a 1.8kWh single battery option, a dual 1.8kWh battery option for a total of 3.6 kWh, which is what this bike is running, or one big 5kWh battery pack.

The Land Moto District is suspended by an inverted, non-adjustable cartridge style fork and a fox float EVOL air shock.
It’s got 17” wheels front and rear and this Scrambler build has the optional Shinko 244 dual sport tires tires.
Riders can select a low shock for a seat height of 30” or a high shock for a seat height of 31”, when paired with the Shinko tires on this Scrambler, it gives the bike a seat height of 33”. The District weighs between 181 pounds and 217 pounds, depending which battery you’re running. This build weighs 207 pounds.
To stop the District, the bike is fitted with Magura dual piston brakes, front and rear.
The District comes in a bunch of different configurations but the current MSRP starts at $7,800. This fully street legal 3.6kWh Scrambler model that I’m testing will run you $9,700 and you can find the bike for sale on the ECR marketplace.
In terms of battery range on the Land Moto District, there are several different battery configurations for this bike. With the dual 1.8kWh option on this bike, at high speeds of 55-60mph, in mode 4, I went 15.4 miles until battery 1 went from 100% to 10%, at which point I need to switch to the 2nd battery. After both batteries were depleted down to 10%, I had gone a total of roughly 31 miles.
When riding around town at lower speeds, still in mode 4, my battery range was improved, seeing roughly 24 miles per 1.8kWh battery pack, or 48 miles total.
Land claims a max range of 80 miles when riding in Ride Mode 1, which seems like it could be possible if ridden very conservatively.
Some things I hope to be changed or added to the District would be some improvements on the rear turn signals. I think they look slick and clean but each of the two District’s I’ve ridden had broken turn signals, so it seems that these need to be reinforced somehow.
I really wish the bike had regenerative modes, which is something that Land Moto said they’re testing and could be as simple as a software update. I don’t want the feature for regenerating power as much as I want to feel some engine braking when I’m decelerating or entering turns.

Авто/Мото
Been waiting for a good review of this bike. Been following the company since they made their CCW gas bikes.
@sqmb Awesome. It's a super cool bike. Hope to see more of them on the road!!
Yeah, I only recently accidentally found out that they are the same guys who ran CCW. That business, uh, let's just say left a lot to be desired. But I can imagine that a emoto company is a hell of a lot easier to run than a Chinese bike company. Plus, this bike looks fucking awesome, so I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt.
I wish there were more "reviews" of the company than the products they claim they'll make. Are they another fake EV company? Will they be around for more than 1 year? Are they well managed? Have they secured skilled and reliable employees and the needed production space? I couldn't care less about it's performance. LAND Energy is a brand new "company" funded by investors through Crunchbase. If it's just the one guy and a few of his buddies, it's the exact same formula as countless other "EV companies" that get funding and disappear.
Couldn’t agree more
@@obeii1805seems shady....
I've heard that the turn signals are not positioned well. I agree that a way to switch over from one battery to the other without stopping would be a good option. This is really their first model and if they can survive (and I hope they do) then I'm sure that changes will be made. Also, the seat can be designed with comfort and still look good. If I lived in a house I would get one for local commuting. At the same time I would be very worried parking this at the supermarket or on the street and walking away because it will attract the wrong attention and in a city environment I can see it be stolen even with the anti theft systems incorporated into the bike. Becasue of it's great looks you would need to be in eyesite of the bike at all times.
Yup the rear turn signals need to be addressed for sure, seen that already as well. We brought ours out to Houston for a ride and it did very well all around the city. Perfect city/commute bike for sure. Love how stable it feels at speed, and how smooth the power delivery comes on. Power modes 1-2 are very underwhelming but would be fantastic for a new rider whose never been on 2 wheels before.
@Surron SD 100% agree!
@@ElectricCycleRider We remanufactured the turn signals, totally agree we needed to fix them and we did.
@@LANDEnergywhat if u have to take off in emergency? What’s the point of the bike having to be in N and the mode resets and have to be recycled back ? What’s the logo on this
Ohhh what a fire looking ride!
@Vitamindevo Has your name all over it!!
That wire unplugging to swap batteries is easily replaced by a switch. At that price it should actually be a voltage-sensing DPTT industrial relay performing automatically, perhaps with an auxiliary relay showing on the display which battery is in use. I mean my cell phone could do this if it was dual battery, and the relay and module might add $400 in cost to manufacturer. Seems with that and the air shock without a coil, this thing may have some nagging maintenance issues. The price is high enough it needs to be very robust and reliable, no fiddling with wires.
Is it maxed out in that ratio ?Or is there a wire you can cut or software you can change to make it faster?
9k for a city bike and not highway is kinda tough bullet to bite..
Yeah they priced themselves out. There’s a Chinese electric moped coming to American market for $2k soon
@@iAmCarlton which one?
Yea 9100 is far to much, you can find a used Metacycle for less than 5000,
@@iAmCarlton what’s the name of it?
It is a beautiful bike, but not enough range for my needs.
This is very interesting!
Have you tested the Kollter Es1-x?
The Zero FX beats this bike in every way. Faster, better range, Way better looking, better off road.
It should for the massive price difference
@almostthere2024 Come on,, massive is a bit exaggerated. I just paid the exact same price for a new Zero FX so you're just wrong
@@LarryRichelli
MSRP USA
Land Moto District $6995
Zero FX $12495
Yeah, nah. I'll stay with 'massive'
Hey, great bikes, but there's a reason they're different.
@@almostthere2024it’s 10k with the max battery.. the single small battery is stupid ..
@@obeii1805still $2500 difference. The feel is way different too I fell in love when I first rode the land moto lol
I’m in Colorado also do we have to register that as a motorcycle here?
Very good review.
Y'all need to check out some Indian ebikes, they are able to get alot more range from smaller battery packs.
Here are a few:-
Ola S1 Pro
Tork Kratos R
Ultraviolet F77
Yea? Show me where they can be purchased in the usa? Othwise why mention bikes we can’t get here n the related video is a bike that can be brought in the USA! Yal ppl ! I wasted bout 30 mins looking for these bikes none are shipped here by the company
@@obeii1805 I mentioned to check em out for the range they offer at the price. USA is selling expensive ebikes with nothing to justify its price.
@@kunalchabria1989 we don’t care if we can’t get them …. 😖😭
You must be from India, Expensive Expensive Expensive 😂
I've been keeping an eye on this bike over the years, and I've been impressed. As a beginner I don't see all the negatives that most other experienced electric motorcycle riders see.
Something you did mention, the size. You called it a " mini " motorcycle. I'm around 6'3'' and a bit heavier than average, I'm not sure I'd fit comfortably on a "mini " motorcycle, unless you just meant it was smaller than a full size?
Yes is is smaller than full size, but still bigger than a surron or a Sting R. THe size would be pretty good for you, maybe getting taller handlebars would make it perfect but it would be pretty dang good out of the box. They dropped the price of the bikes by $1500 this week!
What sprocket was on the bike? 15 or 19 tooth?
That's a fine looking bike
@SuperTiny 808 Agreed!
Fantastic review but I think a few minutes more about the battery would have been cool as this is the only bike I've seen where you can plug thing into the battery to power them
Most of our US orders are going out with the larger packs (CORE+) giving around 100 miles or range. The dual packs are only 28lbs and made for short rides where packs can be swapped and charged quickly.
⚡⚡⚡
*Future is now* 👀
Weight limit for it?
I really like this bike and love that it's American made but I just don't see it being worth 8 grand+.
Mmmm coffee that bike needs a cup holder
I'd like to hear your commentary on the Ryvid Anthem
@Charles Darwin For sure! Plan to ride that soon. 👍
Build a jumper to put both batteries in parallel.
We are still in a world of making a lot of compromises on all electric motorcycles. Either price, weight, range or power. If you are super idealistic about going electric, that would be the only compelling reason to get one for now. I think motos that will be on par with gas are coming but are probably 5 years out still. I have a 2017 DRZ 400sm and it does all this and more. Got it for $4k and it's cherry. Like the idea and am glad people are trying. Keep trying guys!!
@Grant Bowen For sure. The biggest compromise for electric is the range and it really only makes sense for a select group of users. I can't personally go "full" electric because I like to do long distance rides, so it makes sense for me to personally own gas bikes too. And you can't quite get the bang for your buck that your DRZ offers without limitations. So for some people, an electric would be an option in addition to gas. Will be cool to see the technology advance!
@@ElectricCycleRider I´m not really into motorcycles I´m more into mountain bikes. But im guessing the high center of weight cause of the battery placement could also be a down side? Does that affect the handeling and agility noticeable?
Way to much coin for this
This pedestrian battery swap procedure is not really acceptable at $9000 in 2022.
As someone with no motorcycle riding experience but wants a bike, I want to justify why I should buy this electric motorcycle over something like an ICE Svartpilen 401 or a Ninja Z400, both of which are thousands of dollars cheaper. I live in an apartment building (no garage of my own), so would the lower maintenance of an e-moto offset some of the cost? Or am I just reaching for excuses? Does the District still require me to buy insurance like a regular bike? Am I allowed to take this on bike paths if it doesn't have pedals?
I love the District, but it IS very expensive for the limited range that you get compared to so many ICE bikes.
Still needs plates and insurance like any motorcycle. It is not a pedal bike, so bike paths are off limits almost everywhere. The power selector is misleading. The idea of calling it different names as if you can use it different isn't accurate. Places that allow class 1 or 2 won't allow a bike with selectable power like this. This is a motorcycle in every way. As for maintenance, a small ice bike will have fairly low costs to maintain so when buying one for less than half the cost of this they make more sense.
The few e-motorcycles out there are nice looking for sure. However, I’m waiting for the e-motorcycles that are highway capable. I want to see at least 100mph better would be 120mph top speed meaning 80-100mph is cruising speed all day. Which means the battery technology has to improve considerably to get long distance real world range. Hopefully in the next couple years this is the case. One would have to imagine companies out there are scrambling to invent much better electric battery capacity.
I'm in Texas they want 8k for a bike that couldn't even handle half our non highway roads is just sad
Wow 🤙🏼 this bike looks so cool 🙌🏼 I don't fully dig all the digital sounds I hope you can turn them off...still a nice bike tho 💪🏼
💯
@Volted Adventures I'm not aware of a way to turn the digital sounds off but it may be possible. Either way, sharp bike!
@@ElectricCycleRider yessir!
I would rather ride around on the street legal Sur-Ron plus I would get more miles infact I would just use the every day illegal Sur-Ron the land moto is a nice bike its just the distance is rubbish 👍🏾
0-60 speed?
The bike is too expensive at current price, problem with most electric bikes.
Why wouldn't you get a Sonders Metacycle with nearly twice the range and half the price?
@Cyumadbro summit Not to say the Sondors is a bad choice, especially if you're on a smaller budget, but the Land Moto is in a different league on the spec sheet. One of the biggest differences is that the Sondors is utilizing old tech with an inferior hub drive motor, compared to Land Moto's mid drive. The Sondors weighs 300 pounds compared to the 207 pound District that was tested here. Fit and finish between the 2 bikes is surely going to be different as well. As for the range, both companies claim the same range numbers (when compared to Land's 3.6kWh battery), but the 5kWh from Land has more claimed range. The problem with claimed range from any manufacturer is that it's often in "ideal conditions", at painfully low speeds in low power modes. Again, the Sondors is probably a fine option but they're not really on the same page when you break the bikes down.
@@ElectricCycleRider But is it twice the bike for twice the price? Also if you want the lowest possible noise, regen and zero chain maintenance I believe a hub motor is actually advantageous, especially for a non off-road bike. Less regen also means more frequent brake maintenance.
Many other bikes for less that are, Kollter es1, metacycle you said it and a few more!
This didn't age too well...
Way too expensive.
Those smaller batteries are unnecessary.
Super soco tc max has slightly smaller 72V 45Ah batt and people can easily remove it .
With single batt also the manufacturing costs go down and end user gets a more affordable bike
ITS PROB SAFER TO HAVE 2 BATTERYS IDK
Link to the MFG???
@Mac Expert Right here: bit.ly/LandMoto
It's not worth 10 grand to me. I just saw a Ninja 250 in very good condition for $2,500 bucks that sounds like a much better value to me and it probably gets 60 plus miles per gallon. And you learn how to shift and use a clutch you don't learn that on this bike. But I do like electric and I am interested in electric motorcycles I have ridden four five different zeros. In my opinion if you could find a used Zero FX for under $10k it would be a much better value than this bike. And you can find them there's actually one for five grand most of them I've looked at in California are going for 12 Grand. I'm going to be patient and wait another year I think that the longer you wait the better deal you're going to get
Definitely get a used zero ..just they have micro transactions
10 grand, ouch , I understand the price, but insurance on EV motorcycles are up the roof. I own multiple ICE motorcycle and I bought a Metacycle EV scooter, and the insurance was almost triple that of my ICE motorcycle, its nuts, only the rich people can afford to own EV motorcycle, not because of the price but because of the cost of insuring anything EV.............
Not really. My insurance is around $20 a month through progressive in Michigan. I have the land Moto district
I love ebikes and motorcycles but for 9k there is no way..my Grom clone is faster and was 1500 bucks
We get it, there are cheeper vehicles, but we guarantee your Grom is not faster, this thing rips.
We have been manufactuing gas motorcycles for years, we are not some tech Bros that decided it would be cool to make e bikes. This thing is a ripper, you need to experience it. Electric delivers power much different than gas.
Much better design than sondors .
I GUESS THEY IM JUST OLD SCHOOL..CAUSE YEAH IM OLD...
BUT I JUST CANT SEE PAYING THAT
KIND OF MONEY FOR AN ELECTRIC BIKE OR CAR...IF IM GOING TO DO THAT ID BUY A REAL ONE...AS IN
ONE OF THEM ...GAS... BURNING...
COMBUSTION...ENGINES...EVEN ONE OF THOSE ENCLOSED HEATED SCOOTERS...THATS JUST TOO DAMN..MUCH...
Chinese batteries and tyres
9000 dollars for 3.6 kilowatt battery? Lol. I don’t think so. I can buy a 5.2 kw battery for 1200.00. So they’re charging 7800 for the shell? Lol.. say bye bye to that company
Agreed they need to get the price between 5k and 7k and then I'll get one
@@baconbot3106it’s 7k now 😂😂😂
I wish electric motorcycles would look more like standard bikes, this style isn't really appealing
If they were setting out to make the ugliest bike in the world they succeeded. :P
@paolo11x11 Ouch! I think it looks awesome!
It’s definitely not ugly !
My electric scooter cost less and it goes about the same speed stop and I can fold it up and put it in the trunk of my car, mini motors all the way
The fact that they do not offer a simple kit to put the 2 batteries in parallel is just ridiculous. No type1/type2 ac charging plug for this kind of bike is again ridiculous. And by the way, we can see the bike is oscillating up and down at high frequency and we hear your voice trembling. I know it's the knobbies, but... I don't get why you speak so good of it, it looks ok, but all the rest is a big no. Sorry, I know it's made in the US and you guys are fond of this, but it's not enough.
@Giovanni Esposito I speak so good of it because I really like the bike! It's one of the most fun electric motorcycles I've had for running around town and neighborhood type of riding. I like the size, power, build quality and personally love the way it looks. I see what you mean on some of the shortcomings and you have every right to not agree with me but it was a bike that I was bummed to let go after using it for a few weeks.
The dual battery option is not my favorite in real world use. I do see why Land did it though. The single battery build is an affordable option for riders that are riding short distances (and they can potentially upgrade to a 2nd battery down the road), so it would make sense that they would just double down and make the dual battery as an option as well. As I mentioned in the video, I'd definitely want the single 5kWh battery option if I were owning this bike. I agree that it would be awesome if the bike had Level 2 charging capabilities but these batteries are all 72 volt. Maybe in future models?
@@ElectricCycleRider I understand and I am sure you are honest about it. I felt the same with the zero fx, but it has the same downsides, completely unacceptable for a urban ride like this. You don't need 11 kW charging rate, 2,5/3 kW will be plenty and there are hundreds of cheap on-board 72V charger that support j1772 and can do that for 2/300 bucks. These are the things we can not do without, and not having them on a new bike meant for the road is not acceptable imho.
@Giovanni Esposito For sure. Having an on-board charger that can accept a j1772 plug would be ideal. Appreciate your perspective and maybe Land will have some insight to share as well. Thanks.
lol Fk doing 70mph on a Glorified Mountain Bike...........
@Ike Ikie I wouldn't say this bike reminds me of a mountain bike at all but... yeah it'll do 70mph!
Way too expensive for what it is.
